Working Mechanism:

• Connect the cylinder to the hydraulic pump using suitable fittings and hoses.
• Verify that the hydraulic pump has an adequate level of hydraulic fluid and is functioning correctly.
• Securely and stably attach the cylinder to the load or object that needs to be lifted or moved.
• Activate the hydraulic pump to generate pressure, enabling the cylinder to extend and carry out the intended task.
• Keep a close eye on the operation and make necessary adjustments to the pressure for precise control.
• Once the desired action is accomplished, release the pressure from the hydraulic pump.Disengage the cylinder from the load with care and store it in a clean and dry environment.

Features:

• Enerpac RC-108 cylinder is equipped with a bearing system that includes composite wear bands for optimal sideload resistance, ensuring smooth operation and minimising wear and tear on the cylinder.
• It utilises high-grade polyethylene seals, offering low wear and minimising the risk of leakage for long service life.
• This Enerpac RC108 hydraulic cylinder comes included with a plunger wiper to reduce contamination and extend the life of the cylinder.
• It is equipped with collar and plunger threads and base mounting holes, allowing for simple installation and integration of the cylinder into various applications.

• Enerpac A92 Duck Bill Spreader: It converts this RC Series cylinder into a wedge spreader for many different industrial applications. This threaded attachment is designed to be compatible with 10-ton RC-Series cylinders. Once attached, this tool transforms into a single-acting spring return hydraulic spreader capable of fitting into narrow gaps as small as 1.38 inches (35mm) and expanding up to 6.25 inches (158mm).
• Enerpac AW102 Mounting Bracket: Enerpac mounting bracket ensures a secure attachment of this Enerpac hydraulic cylinder to various structures or surfaces. Its primary function is to provide a stable and dependable connection, enabling the hydraulic cylinder to be securely mounted in place.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. Is this Enerpac RC-108 cylinder corrosion resistant?

A. This cylinder features coated baked enamel finish, providing increased resistance against corrosion. This protective coating extends the service life of the cylinder, even in harsh environments.

Q. What accessories come included in this hydraulic cylinder?

A. This RC108 hydraulic cylinder comes with a range of additional accessories, including a CR400 coupler, dust cap, collar thread protector and an optional CHM6 carrying handle. These accessories enhance the usability and convenience of the cylinder.

Q. Is this cylinder single-acting or double acting?

A. This RC108 cylinder is single-acting and is designed to utilise hydraulic fluid on one side of the piston for operation. It extends through pressure generated by the pump, while retraction is achieved through either the weight of the load or a built-in spring, ensuring efficient and reliable performance.

Q. What is the maximum load capacity that this cylinder can withstand?

A. This cylinder has a maximum capacity of 11.2 tons (capacity Class 10).
